	<category><![CDATA[Legislation and Regulations/Policy/Forest Practices]]></category>
	<description><![CDATA[The intention of the Forest Planning and Practices Regulation (FPPR) amendments for secondary structure is to require licensees and BCTS to leave MPB killed stands with an “adequate stocking density” of “suitable secondary structure” un-harvested and to harvest pine leading stands that have little or no secondary structure instead.  This site has links to the OIC (signed June 26/08), a document explaining the regulation amendment, and a suggested survey method for measuring stocking of secondary structure.  ]]></description>
